* News is the reporting of current events usually by local, regional or mass
media in the form of newspapers, television and radio programs, or sites on the
World Wide Web. News reporting is a type of journalism, typically written or

developed by Sun Microsystems in the late 1980s. Its primary architect was James

fashion. Unlike PostScript in a printer, NeWS would be displaying a number of PS
programs at the same time on one screen, so some form of multitasking was
required. ...
